Mentioned in: The Best Mac N' Cheese and Grilled Cheese in Montreal

Review Summary

Reviews of Macbar et Fromage express disappointment over a notable decline in quality, with at least one location on Ontario St E in Montreal reportedly closed. The mac and cheese, once praised for perfect flavor, al dente pasta and generous cheese, is described as now overcooked with a watery and flavorless roux. In another order, the Montrealais mac and smoked meat was delicious, but the dish arrived without the expected fried cornichons and green onions, which felt like a letdown. A drop in quality since November is repeatedly noted, with comments like the biggest drop of quality seen and statements of being very disappointed and not returning.
